Not enough space in fermenter

[JCrow]

I started a strawberry wine last night and didn't expect such an expansion of the fruit cap. I probably should have used a bag so I could weigh down the solids but I did not so now the pulverized fruit is comeing up through the bubbler. To combat this I transfered some of the liquids to a sealable bottle and fridged it till I can either get another airlock or till the fruit cap sinks. Is this the right move or will fridging the excess cause unforseen problems down the road

Sure, that would be fine except I’d get it out of the fridge and into a food safe large bowl/bucket/something and put a towel over it and let it ferment also.
